1-time: at least 1:30 min
2-ships: at least 2 “large” ships and 4 different fighters/bombers
3-You can be more than one person on a single movie
4-you can use old model
5-you must make all the things in blender!
6-…review the 5 first rules!

There are 2 chalangers, one person serves by puting an object into a layer.
The file is then returned to, with an other object in the second layer, The objects in the first layer can be moved or changed, but must remain visable (at least a bit).

This can go on for a max of 10 rounds (one time each per round).
Time limits and other rules are made per game by the contestants.

After reading how to play “Photoshop Tennis,” I thought of the words “Blender Basketball.” I’ve come up with a few things:

You start with a pre-made object. In some sort of chat room that we’d probably have to program, two people are given the object. Then, they try improving on the object in another layer by taking the blend and, doing it quickly, making a new model/version of the object. When one hears a “ping,” that means that their .blend is automatically nullified and they have to start on the other player’s .blend. For 3 hours (or 24), they keep doing this, until a buzzer sounds. The chat room stops in place, and the one who either has posted more often or has made the last one is the winner!

Time zones - you will not be able to play this with people from opposite time zones.

Stress - stressed bendering is not what this is about

Timed races really don’t produce the best work … the comp is about sending the best returns, not the most!!!

I was thinking more of:
P1 serve - has single object or full render
P2 return - D/l the blend, add or edit the objects to create a different render, but still contains something of the last serve
P1 return
etc.

Huh? What do you mean?

Okay, I get that idea. I didn’t know of any other way to steal a ball, Blender-wise. Suggestions? Hmm… maybe they have to turn in their work so far at the end of the hour…

Okay, so they have to post pictures with the .blend. People post what they think of the picture. The sum/average must be higher at the end for someone to win.

This is referring to Blender Tennis, right?

what if i were to add a single vertex to it and post it? hmmm.

Hopefully we’d have rules to prohibit this. Or, if the original model was a desert, and that single vertex is a sun… hmmm…
